@zebedee - perhaps you should go the cremation route.
Thanks for this effort cinnamon_carter, really like having qr code support in a client. As your branch here is off the 0.8.6 code from frictionlesscoin & not the 9.2 code base Ahmed_Bodi has created, that source found here:
https://github.com/IXCoin-Dev/IXCoinFelt it worth pointing out to folks, (aka deadsea33) jumping up and then back down a version while testing different 'ALPHA' client programs, your lucky if all you need to do is a blockchain rescan.
Looked @ your code changes to fix those rpc commands, had not forgotten about that issue cinn, running 9.2 here & just executed the getblocktemplate/getwork commands in the v0.9.2.1-g752ecec-beta client console, they seemed to return good responses, without any errors or a client crash, other than that I've no idea if they are really working as you need, or what source code diff there is between them.
The link to that Win executable is somewhere back in this thread...know he had some units of measurement source changes((mIxc & uIxc) since the last .exe compile, perhaps that fixed and a MAC version would be great, and then also just figured out we need to have an update on the Ixcoin 0.9.2.1 build date, it says July 4th, 2014.
@cinnamon_carter - Was hoping
you would look over how the merged mining code in v9.2 'feels' too you, and report back, no offense to Ahmed, the fact he intends on releasing it fully tested and ready to run MM on a major pool is outstanding. Yet IMO the more understanding eyeballs we get on that section the better for Ixc and many other alts, we need to be able to formulate a proof of the merged mining technique used, perhaps even to save us from the same fate as zebedee...
Where I'm at, is the whole issue of building the Ixcoin executable from scratch, gotta figure that out & then study the critical components and code changes which make that work is going to take me months, call me slow....I'll get there.
